(WFTV) – Florida Wildlife Hospital & Sanctuary (FWH) rescued two sibling bobcat kittens on June 1 after they were found struggling in a backyard pond.

One of the kittens, a male, did not survive.

The female was doing well, but FWH said lone bobcat kittens do not usually thrive in captivity, so it was important to get the kitten a friend.

FWH said it found a candidate at Back to Nature in Kissimmee. The female was very tame so it was important to house her with a wild bobcat so “she could learn how to be wild herself,” FWC said.
